I had a great crew aboard the leg from Lagos to Las Palmas, both found on Crew Link. The trip was great although the wind could have cooperated a bit more.

Salty Dawg Nov 2020 – Hampton, VA to Antigua

Fjällbacka, Sweden
Fjällbacka, located halfway between Oslo and Gothenburg, is one of our favorite spots mostly because of the beauty of this picturesque fishing town of redwood homes nestled in the shadow of the Kungsklyftan (King’s Cliff).
